Build/ Deploy of EAR using ANT Scripts

[Former Member]

Hi ,

We are looking for automating the Building and deploying machanism using Ant scripts.

I am not aware as to how do you do this with SAp WEB AS , since while creation of EAR , web as expects manifest.mf and sapmanifest.mf in its own format with timestamp etc.

Is there any way we could use the eargenerator.bat under

deploying directory of the web AS with Ant build scripts for geneartion of ear

Also using Ant is it possible to deploy using ant scripts ?

Infact not only buidling /deployment , but also starting up of some stand alone java clients which talks to SAP WEB AS need to be take care using ant build .

Any help on this will be appreciated .

regards

Hi Rajesh,

there was recently a weblog about this topic:

/people/david.beisert2/blog/2006/02/13/sdm-deployment-as-ant-task

You can find an ant task there which you can use to deploy via SDM. This is also the way EARs get deployed on the J2EE Engine so this might be usefull for you.
